Answer:

See answer below

Step-by-step explanation:

1), Probably, your implication is ∀x∃yP(x,y)⇒∃x∀yP(x,y).

This implication is false. Consider the predicate P(x,y):="x<y" for real numbers x,y. Then, ∀x∃yP(x,y) is true: for all real x, there exists some y greater than x (take y=x+1 for example). However, ∃x∀yP(x,y) is false, as it would imply that there exists some real number x such that x is smaller than all real numbers, which is not true (real numbers do not have a minimum or a lower bound).

A short explanation would be, even if for all elements you can find one that makes a predicate true, you can not find one element that makes the predicate true for all elements.

2) Again, I assume that the predicate is ∃x∀yP(x,y)⇒∀x∃yP(x,y)

This implication is false. Consider the predicate P(x,y):="x is integer and xy=0 " for real numbers x,y. Then ∃x∀yP(x,y) is true, we need to take x=0. However, ∀x∃yP(x,y) is false, if you take x=1/2, 1/2 will never be an integer, no matter the value of y.

A short explanation would be, even if you can find one element that makes a predicate true for all elements, you can not always take an arbitrary element and find some element that makes the predicate true.

100 is what percent of 250?
alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

100 is 40% of 250

Step-by-step explanation:

1. We assume, that the number 250 is 100% - because it's the output value of the task.  

2. We assume, that x is the value we are looking for.  

3. If 100% equals 250, so we can write it down as 100%=250.  

4. We know, that x% equals 100 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=100.  

5. Now we have two simple equations:

1) 100%=250

2) x%=100

where left sides of both of them have the same units, and both right sides have the same units, so we can do something like that:

100%/x%=250/100

6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 100 is what percent of 250

100%/x%=250/100

(100/x)*x=(250/100)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x

100=2.5*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (2.5) to get x

100/2.5=x  

40=x  

x=40

now we have:  

100 is 40% of 250

A customer service phone line claims that the wait times before a call is answered by a service representative is less than 3.3
Vika [28.1K]

Answer:

(A) Yes, since the test statistic is in the rejection region defined by the critical value, reject the null. The claim is the alternative, so the claim is supported.

Step-by-step explanation:

Null hypothesis: The wait time before a call is answered by a service representative is 3.3 minutes.

Alternate hypothesis: The wait time before a call is answered by a service representative is less than 3.3 minutes.

Test statistic (t) = (sample mean - population mean) ÷ sd/√n

sample mean = 3.24 minutes

population mean = 3.3 minutes

sd = 0.4 minutes

n = 62

degree of freedom = n - 1 = 62 - 1 = 71

significance level = 0.08

t = (3.24 - 3.3) ÷ 0.4/√62 = -0.06 ÷ 005 = -1.2

The test is a one-tailed test. The critical value corresponding to 61 degrees of freedom and 0.08 significance level is 1.654

Conclusion:

Reject the null hypothesis because the test statistic -1.2 is in the rejection region of the critical value 1.654. The claim is contained in the alternative hypothesis, so it is supported.
